Pathophysiology of circulating xanthine oxidoreductase: New emerging roles for a multi-tasking enzyme
Abstract The enzyme xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) catalyses the last step of purine degradation in the highest uricotelic primates as a rate-limiting enzyme in nucleic acid catabolism. Although XOR has been studied for more than a century, this...

Influence of Creatine Supplementation on the Parameters of the “All-Out Critical Power Test”
We tested the hypotheses that creatine loading would result in no alteration in critical power (CP) or the total work done > CP (W) as estimated from a novel 3-minute all-out cycling protocol. Seven habitually active male subjects completed 3-minute all-out...

Safety of poly (ethylene glycol)-coated perfluorodecalin-filled poly (lactide-co-glycolide) microcapsules following intravenous administration of high amounts in rats
Abstract The host response against foreign materials designates the biocompatibility of intravenously administered microcapsules and thus, widely affects their potential for subsequent clinical use as artificial oxygen/drug carriers. Therefore, body ...

Mechanisms and Clinical Consequences of Untreated Central Sleep Apnea in Heart Failure
Abstract Central sleep apnea (CSA) is a highly prevalent, though often unrecognized, comorbidity in patients with heart failure (HF). Data from HF population studies suggest that it may present in 30% to 50% of HF patients. CSA is recognized as...

Serum copper to zinc ratio: Relationship with aging and health status
Abstract The serum concentrations of copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) are strictly regulated by compensatory mechanisms that act to stabilize them within certain ranges of nutritional intake. However, there are mechanisms that are built to decrease serum...
